Christine Hauck
Christine E. Hauck has worked as an award-winning senior graphic designer, multimedia artist, and visual arts educator for over 25 years. As the owner of her graffeast design studio, she collaborates with small non-profits to Fortune 500 companies and is known for her conceptual thinking and design.
Christine is a board member of Hartland Community Arts and an artist member of AVA, the Greenwich Arts Society, and the Greenwich Arts Council. She holds an undergraduate Art History degree from Vassar College, an associate degree in Graphics and Advertising (with a seminar in Japan), and her master’s degree in Decorative Arts and Curatorial Studies from Parsons School of Design. She has studied contemporary figural and landscape painting with Enzo Russo, a student of Giorgio di Chirico.
Since 1991, Christine has exhibited in juried and non-juried shows. Selected solo painting exhibitions include DHMC's Winter Show. In her own words, “whether my subject matter is a landscape or a figure, I am drawn by strong forms and color harmonies, bold contrasts and striking patterns of light and dark — my inspiration for landscapes is the majestic Mt. Ascutney, and the surrounding lower Sunapee Valley.”
Recently, Christine fell in love with portrait sculpture after studying with master sculptors-in-residence, including Amanda J. Sisk at Saint‑Gaudens National Historic Site. In 2019, she entered her first sculpture in The Society of Portrait Sculptors’ annual London exhibition with a portrait head entitled Serena, which was featured with The Sunflower Patch in AVA’s 2019 members’ exhibition.
